John Wesley 28 June [O.S. 17 June] 1703 - 2 March 1791) was an English Anglican cleric and theologian who, with his brother Charles and fellow cleric George Whitefield, founded Methodism. Educated at Charterhouse School and Christ Church, Oxford, Wesley was elected a fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford, in 1726 and ordained a priest two years later. He led the "Holy Club," a society formed for the purpose of study and the pursuit of a devout Christian life; it had been founded by his brother Charles, and counted George Whitefield among its members. After an unsuccessful ministry of two years at Savannah in the Georgia Colony, Wesley returned to London and joined a religious society led by Moravian Christians. On 24 May 1738 he experienced what has come to be called his evangelical conversion, when he felt his "heart strangely warmed." He subsequently departed from the Moravians, beginning his own ministry.

Spanning some fifty-five years, John Wesley recorded his daily experiences in studying, teaching, preaching, and traveling throughout England and then America in the eighteenth century. These selections present an engrossing portrait of Wesley during the course of his travels and evangelistic activities, illuminating the preacher''s views and opinions on a host of contemporary matters. Wesley''s eclectic interests and passion for rational analysis also make his journal a rich source for any reader interested in observing the conditions and values of society--particularly those of the lower classes--through the eyes of a well-educated and intelligent gentleman of the time. John Wesley (1703-1791) was an eighteenth-century Anglican clergyman and Christian theologian who was the founder of the Methodist movement. Methodism had three rises, the first at Oxford University with the founding of the so-called "Holy Club," the second while Wesley was parish priest in Savannah, Georgia, and the third in London after Wesley''s return to England. The movement took form from its third rise in the early 1740s when Wesley, along with others, began itinerant field preaching and subsequently founded religious societies for the formation of believers. This was the first widely successful evangelical movement in Britain.

Thirteen discourses on the Sermon on the Mount confronts readers with Wesley''s understanding of Jesus'' vibrant message: true holiness in Christ, distinguished from merely external religion.

John Wesley wrote this series of sermon commentaries to help people understand Jesus Sermon on the Mount. It took him over 15 years to complete this important work. Over time, changes within the English language caused some of these writings to be very difficult for the average person to read, and were really only suited for the most dedicated theologian. Through careful and sensitive editing, Clare Weakley, Jr. has brought these sermons back to life for every reader in the modern world to be able to enjoy and understand Wesleys insights and teachings regarding the Sermon on the Mount.

John Wesley was born in 1703 in Lincolnshire, England. After being educated at Charterhouse and Oxford, he traveled to the American colonies to serve as minister in Savannah, Georgia.

His literary output included hundreds of sermons and tracts along with his journals. Reverend Wesley''s preaching continues to be influential to this day.

The political writings of John Wesley (1703-1791) reveal a passionate campaigner engaged throughout his life with the care of the oppressed. His life was one of great paradox: as a high-churchman and Tory, living under the instruction of the Bible, tradition set him against radical change, yet few individuals could have been more responsible for upheaval in church and society. He believed scriptures set him against the cause of democracy, yet scarcely one other single person could have contributed more to its realization. His gospel religion inflamed in him an outrage at the social and political evils of his day that was barely matched by the more explicitly radical of his contemporaries. This volume collects addresses and pamphlets that capture Wesley''s views on a variety of political subjects including the nature of political power, his response to Richard Price''s Observations on Liberty, his views on slavery, on poverty, on the secession of the American colonies, and on the luxury of the rich. Together they make clear the relevance of Wesley to subsequent developments in the abolition of slavery and the evolution of labour politics. The book features an extensive new introduction by the editor. --includes extensive new introduction on the life of Wesley and the historical and intellectual context of the writings --all materials are reset --there are no modern publications of these texts apart from multi-volume collections of Wesley''s entire works --Wesley is an important figure in the study of the abolition of the slave trade
